Vice Media is slated to debut a nightly news program Sept. 26 on HBO, a half-hour weeknight competitor to the network mainstays.
"Vice News Tonight" will air nightly at 7:30 p.m. ET on HBO and will be available on the cable network's on-demand and app services, as well.
Madeleine Haeringer, an MSNBC alum, is executive producer. The media company said format, content and staff announcements will be made in coming weeks.
"The nightly news hasn’t changed its format in 60 years, whereas the way most viewers -- particularly younger viewers -- consume information has changed dramatically,” said Josh Tyrangiel, Vice executive VP of content and news. "We understand that people aren’t going to watch 'Vice News Tonight' out of obligation. We're going to have to earn people’s time and attention with great reporting and original forms of storytelling."
Among an influx of staff, Vice has added NBC senior producer and digital editor for "Meet the Press" Shawna Thomas as Washington bureau chief.
She will handle Vice News, the two HBO shows and Vice digital.
